Vegan Seafood Chowder
This fish-free vegan seafood chowder is hearty and creamy, with a subtle fish flavour. I chose to use plant-based prawns for this, they worked perfectly, but they’re not 100% necessary. You can choose to omit them if they’re not available, this soup will still have a fishy flavour to it coming from the seaweed Serves;… Continue reading Vegan Seafood Chowder
Vegan Ham & Cheese Twists
These moreish pastry twists are a combination of dairy-free cheese, meat-free smoked ham, and crumbly shortcrust pastry. They’re a really tasty snack and are lovely eaten hot or cold. Shortcrust and puff pastry from supermarkets (here in the UK at least) is usually suitable for vegans, as oil is used rather than butter. But it’s… Continue reading Vegan Ham & Cheese Twists
Creamy Garlic Mushrooms on Toast
This is one of my favourite meals to have for breakfast or lunch. It’s definitely a hit for any fellow mushroom fans. It combines mushrooms, garlic, tarragon and nutritional yeast in a creamy sauce. I’ve used a mix of oyster mushrooms for this, but it will work with any mushrooms. I like using white closed… Continue reading Creamy Garlic Mushrooms on Toast
Broccoli & Cauliflower Cheese Soup
This comforting, cosy soup is a delicious combination of broccoli, cauliflower and vegan smoked cheese. The cheesy element comes from smoked tofu, nutritional yeast and a few other seasonings. Meaning this recipe doesn’t call for any vegan cheese or cashews. I realise vegan cheese isn’t for everyone, and cashews can be expensive, so I’ve been… Continue reading Broccoli & Cauliflower Cheese Soup
Vegan Halloween Cheesecake

I chose to make it, so I’ll include details on how to do that… Continue reading Vegan Halloween Cheesecake
Vegan Camembert Stuffed Pumpkin
A whole roasted pumpkin stuffed with deliciously dairy-free melted camembert. This would make for an awesome dip, simply serve with breadsticks, crusty bread or vegetable sticks. I used plant-based camembert by Honestly Tasty, it’s the closest thing to dairy camembert that I’ve tried since I transitioned to veganism. They also have a lovely brie that… Continue reading Vegan Camembert Stuffed Pumpkin
